U at Buffalo: Left-fascist and Islamic supremacist students enraged by “Stop Sharia” message

This WIVB story is remarkably poorly written, but it does manage to convey some vague idea that Muslim and Leftist students at the University at Buffalo were offended by a “Stop Sharia Law” message found on the campus bull that students paint on a daily basis. When I was at the University at Buffalo to be screamed at by Left-fascist and Muslim students, the courageous YAF students who invited me told me the real story: student groups paint the bull daily, and by common custom all understand that the first group to paint the bull will be allowed to display its message for a full day, with no other group repainting the bull until the next night.

However, when YAF students painted the bull with “Welcome Robert Spencer” on one side and “Stop Sharia Law” on the other, Leftist and Muslim students violated school tradition and painted it over almost immediately. Administrators, of course did nothing. Muslim students professed to be offended by the “Stop Sharia Law” message, although one would think that as self-proclaimed moderates they would reject stoning, amputation, the institutionalized discrimination against women and non-Muslims, denial of the freedom of speech, and anti-Semitism that Sharia entails. Of course, they’re relying on the ignorance of their Leftist allies about Sharia, and one can always count on the ignorance of Leftists.

Speaking of “self-proclaimed,” I am not actually a “self-proclaimed expert on radical Islam,” as I have never proclaimed myself an expert on anything, and my work stands or falls on the basis of the evidence from the Qur’an and Sunnah, history and current events. Nor do I ever speak about “radical Islam,” which is a Western construct that does not exist in the Islamic world.

AMHERST, N.Y. (WIVB) – The bull statue outside the student center at the University at Buffalo has become a divisive symbol on campus. Through an art project sponsored by the university, students and staff paint the bull. There are specific guidelines that students must follow.

That includes, you must paint the bull by the cover of night. When the sun comes out, your masterpiece is revealed to the rest of campus.

But some students say through this project, one important message is being forgotten: respect.

Akram Shibly, A UB graduate has tracked the ever-changing colors and ideas painted on the bull on campus. He said, “It’s funny, because the sign says to show respect to the buffalo, and the members of our community. I think all over the country, we see on college campuses there is a need and a desire to have a conversation.”

The “paint a bull” campaign started by the university promotes freedom of speech, with some guidelines. Shibly said, “The buffalo may be painted between sunset and sunrise by one group at a time-whoever is there first, and show respect to the buffalo and members of our community.”

But Shibly said among the paint, a message is getting lost. He said, “It went from being this opportunity for students to express themselves artistically, to a platform for hateful rhetoric going back and forth.”

The conflict started Monday, after a campus group invited Robert Spencer, A self proclaimed expert on radical Islam- who runs the website “Jihad Watch” to campus. To promote the speaker, the group painted a controversial message on the bull. It read, “Stop Sharia Law.” Shibly said, “Muslim and non-Muslim students came together to cover that up and they painted over it, “Salah equals peace. But, the next night, somebody covered that with, “God hates liberals.”…

Robert Spencer did speak on campus, and both supporters and protestors filled the room to capacity. The group, Young Americans For Freedom for freedom invited Spencer for the club’s first official event. Since then, the Muslim Student Association has met with the group to talk about their message on the bull- and their differing views.

I live in Buffalo and I can add that the media did everything in its power to hide the fact Spencer was speaking. Leftists, while proclaiming themselves “self proclaimed” “tolerant” individuals, have no interest in differing points of view. Now one cant even object to sharia law, a law that mandates discrimination against women and death to homosexuals, without being accused of being Islamophobic. Absurd.

Please note that the Leftards at universities across the Western world (not just the USA) have adopted a closed mind to all arguments they do not like. Even further, they have attempted everywhere to STOP DISCUSSION or the PRESENTATION of ideas they do not like. This is certainly CENSORSHIP and a form of DICTATORSHIP in the universities.

Since the Leftards are trying to PREVENT the discussion or even PRESENTATION of IDEAS, civil disobedience has become necessary.

The Leftards are giving those who OPPOSE ISLAMIZATION and SHARIFICATION no option but to draw attention to the INTOLERANCE and CENSORSHIP of the Leftards.

THE LEFTARDS are in FAVOR OF: 1) FGM 2) hand-chopping 3) throwing gays and lesbians off the roof 4) subjugation of themselves (Leftards) by Islamic dictators 5) gender apartheid at ALL campus activities … all of them 6) jihad-warfare against disbelievers until they submit to the dhimmi contract 7) overthrow of the US constitution and its replacement with Sharia.

Take a look at the Wikipedia entry for Geraldo Sem Pavor, Gerald the Fearless. His statue in the Portuguese city of Évora, depicts him with a sword in his right hand and the head of a Moor in his left. Geraldo is a hero of the Portuguese Reconquista, nearly 300 years before the Spanish Reconquista.

A fine question that challenges Muslims to come clean about jihad. If ‘radical’ Islam differs from the Koran, it should be easy to spot the difference, but most Muslims will slink out of the answer.

Muslims have thousands of dodges, the chiefest of all being a flat denial: ‘That has NOTHING to do with Islam.’ At that point they will distract with non-sequiturs, throw sand in your eyes with groundless ad hominems. accuse you of racism, Islamophobia, etc. and retreat and claim victory without refuting a single point or raising a single argument.

To PRCS: after further thought on your question (‘…at what point a Muslim’s compliance with Qur’an and Sunn’ah becomes extremism), it seems that a better way to phrase the thought would be to ask them this:

“What EXACTLY is ISIS doing that is a BREACH of the Sharia and Sunna? ISIS is led by one of the most learned Islamic scholars, Caliph Abu Bakr al Baghdadi. So why then, is Al Azhar University unable to find fault with the ISIS ideology or identify how it is breaching Sharia and Sunnah? How do YOU (dear Muslim apologist) intend to identify what is wrong with ISIS if Al Azhar University has not identified a single profound criticism of ISIS? Does that not mean that ISIS is actually practicing AUTHENTIC ISLAM?”

Life-size fiberglass buffalo statues started appearing in the Buffalo area a few decades ago. A neighbor of mine has one on his front lawn. They’re kind of like lawn flamingos, only bigger and browner.http://www.fiberstock.com/products/buffalo

If you do decide to install a fiberglass bison, the most difficult decision might be how to orient it’s placement. Installing it so it is looking into your window is an awesome view when your looking out your window, but neighbors and passers-by will see it’s hindquarters.
Since they are herd animals, perhaps you should buy three.

It is so sad to see these children of such innocence go to college institutions that teach anti-American beliefs. The colleges encourage anti-American Muslim beliefs that support the anti-constitution, anti-American Sharia Law. The truth about the Muslim body is censored in the news media as to not offend the Muslims in this country. The infidels have been turning the cheek and giving up their lives for the last 1400 years, I am sure there was some love given along the way and to this day the 1400 year war is ongoing. The truth about the Muslims is shameful and embarrassing to the American people so the censorship has to continue. When a Muslim puts down the Quran which teaches hate for the infidels, there might be hope for these soulless beings. This will happen when pigs fly, the Muslims eat pork, scrap Sharia Law in the Unites of America and except the Constitution as the only law of the American people equally applied to all American citizens with no religious exceptions.

”But Shibly said among the paint, a message is getting lost. He said, “It went from being this opportunity for students to express themselves artistically, to a platform for hateful rhetoric going back and forth.”

For ‘hateful rhetoric’, read; ”anything I and my moronic friends disagree with.” Was he running for his ‘safe space’ ? 🙂

In what way is “Stop Sharia” hateful? What exactly is attractive about the Muslim and Arab world, under the influence of the sharia, that is so congenial to leftists? These foolish silly people are the first who would be murdered or enslaved under the sharia.

Exactly. It is not opposing Shari’ah that is hateful, it is supporting barbarism like cutting off the hands of petty thieves, crucifying kids who have a snack during Ramadan, and stoning rape victims to death.

So they they want Sharia to replace the Constitution of the USA. A totalitarian, brutal and vicious legal system that will take away all individual freedoms, enslave all non-Muslims, allow the rape and murder of non-Muslims, and will execute gays. That’s what they want. From the looks of things, eventually, that’s what they’ll get.

Speaking of “self-proclaimed,” I am not actually a “self-proclaimed expert on radical Islam,” as I have never proclaimed myself an expert on anything, and my work stands or falls on the basis of the evidence from the Qur’an and Sunnah, history and current events. Nor do I ever speak about “radical Islam,” which is a Western construct that does not exist in the Islamic world.

The message needs to be made send and made clear to all the Muslims as well as their non-Muslim left wing stooges who jihad-minded Muslims use as tools for their Islamic agenda. Which is that those in the United States of America who dislike and maybe even despise the US Constitution and would like to replace it with Sharia law. Those same Muslims instead in trying to force Sharia law on American citizens and their nation those are free to leave and really should leave the USA and then go to live in either Shii ‘ite, Iran or Sunni , Saudi Arabia if they actually feel the Sharia law is the grand, great and wonderful .
Moreover, all this is a strong reminder of the wise words declared by Theodore Roosevelt in a speech. “There can be no fifty –fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only one hundred percent Americanism , only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”

Thank you, Mr. Spencer, for not writing that they met “To dialog about…….” but “To talk.”
I am glad to see that some students, at least, understand the danger of Islam in our country and try to wake people up about this danger.

My suspicion is that the Marxist taught students just automatically identify with Muslims as a “downtrodden minority”, a kneejerk reaction that doesn’t reflect an enthusiasm for Sharia as much as an ignorance of history and Islam. This self satisfied ignorance demonstrates the laziness and lack of intellectual inquiry among those who proclaim themselves to be virtuous “social justice warriors”.

So when truth and facts get involved their only response is to deny and sabotage the discussion using the same tactics as the Muslims – deceit, claims of victimization and ultimately violence. Our Universities are complacently raising a generation of Brown shirts and Liberal fascists. They have whole Departments devoted to this unfortunate goal,

It is highly unlikely that the MSM is going to give any FGM clinic victims any air time. When that “honor killing” involving a beheading occurred at the studio for Bridges TV in Orchard Park, NY, it was within 24 hours of that commuter plane crash in Clarence, NY. There were satellite TV trucks from all over the nation here in Erie County, NY. I think it was Feb. 2009.

FOX News was the only major cable channel that I was aware of that broadcast that murder. No one else made any mention of it. I believe that ABC was the next one to make a brief mention of it, perhaps 7-10 days after the event occurred

The now defunct Bridges cable TV channel was run by a Muslim couple to promote understanding between Islam and the infidels (my characterization). The estranged wife was seeking a divorce. I guess she found out first hand that Islam is not that great, if your not a male.
